I made reservations for a tour of the Tule Lake Segregation Center for next Friday. It's one of those places that I've been wanting to visit for a while. Close to 30K Japanese Americans were interred there. There's not a lot of it left, but I still want to visit. I doubt it will be as moving...

To keep completely legal, I need to trap them on my own land and dispatch them here. Firing a gun inside city...
